Who pays the price for a corporate media system that endlessly ignores,
downplays, or misdiagnoses the most pressing issues of our day? We all
do. You. Us. Our families and friends and loved ones. Our local
communities pay. Our democracy pays. This planet is paying the price and
so is the future.

Today we launch our crucial End-of-Year Campaign at Common Dreams. If
you believe in independent journalism and the power of our work, please
support this nonprofit newsroom and our mission:

To inform. To inspire. To ignite change for the common good.
